What it does
The IR Remote Control Module for Arduino, Raspberry Pi & Microcontrollers | Infrared Receiver receives infrared signals from standard TV and appliance remotes. It decodes NEC, Sony SIRC, RC5, and RC6 protocols for wireless control of microcontroller projects.
Key features
- Receives 38kHz IR signals from standard remotes
- Decodes NEC protocol (and others) automatically
- Digital output for easy microcontroller interfacing
- Long reception range up to 15 meters
- Low power consumption for always-on applications
- Built-in demodulator and AGC circuit
- Compact sensor with easy mounting
Good to know
- Ambient IR (sunlight, halogen) can interfere – use indoors or shield
- Use IRremote library by shirriff/z3t0 for Arduino
- Most TV remotes use NEC protocol – easily decoded
- Each remote button has unique code – record and map in software
- IR LED required on transmitter side; this module is receiver only
